Chapter Two: Sesshomaru's Decision
Jaken and Rin watched from a window all the commotion going on below them.
"I wonder what that despicable half-demon is doing here," Jaken wondered aloud.
"Maybe he has come to make peace with Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin exclaimed optimistically just as InuYasha began to unsheathe his Tetsiaga.
"Or not…" Jaken muttered, "All InuYasha knows is how to start fights and win the hearts of human girls."
"Why does Lord Sesshomaru not like humans?" Rin asked turning to Jaken.
"Because they are weak creatures," came his reply.
"I'm not weak!" Rin stated proudly.
"All the same, you're still a human," Jaken said, and then more quietly added, "That milord could greatly do without."
Rin still heard the last comment though and rushed out of the room with tears in her eyes. Sesshomaru who had just reentered his home felt Rin run right into him.
"I'm s-sorry Lord S-Sesshomaru," she apologized still crying.
"Rin, stop at once. What is the cause for such a display?" Sesshomaru asked making no move to comfort her.
"Master Jaken said you would be better off without me." Rin wiped her eyes. "Is it true Lord Sesshomaru? Do you hate me?"
"If I'd felt the need I would have gotten rid of you long ago," Sesshomaru replied as he began to walk away. He'd have to tell Jaken to hold his tongue- these crying sessions from Rin were becoming bothersome.
"Ah, Lord Sesshomaru!" Jaken appeared in front of the wolf demon. "I see that InuY-----"
Jaken lay on the floor in pain as his Lord stepped on him and continued on his way. Rin following quickly behind Sesshomaru did the same.
"What did InuYasha have to say?" Rin asked now back in her normal happy mood.
"Nothing important."
Spotting the paper in Sesshomaru's hands, Rin reached for it. Sesshomaru being as quick as he was, easily avoided her grasp.
"What is that milord? It is very pretty."
"It is an invitation," Sesshomaru hoped answering her question would allow him to be left alone, but he had no luck there.
"An invitation? To a party?" Rin's eyes filled with excitement, "Are we going to a party Lord Sesshomaru? That would be so much fun!"
"We are not going anywhere, especially if it's InuYasha who invited us."
"But we never go anywhere fun like parties!" Rin whined.
"No," Sesshomaru repeated his answer.
"I will brush your hair for you," Rin offered.
"I do not want my hair to be brushed."
"But last time, you liked it! You were purring!"
Sesshomaru stopped walking and turned to look at Rin. "I do not purr," he stated sternly.
"Yes, milord," Rin said bowing her head to hide a smile. He did too purr!
"But we have to go!" Rin tried again as Sesshomaru walked into his study.
"We don't have to do anything, Rin."
"I will run away if you don't let me go!" Rin stomped her foot, but because she was so small it didn't have much of an effect.
Sesshomaru just looked at her strangely. She had never fought for something so much.
"Suit yourself," he shrugged his shoulders.
Rin seeing no other way started to cry again. "Oh please, Lord Sesshomaru. I'll be good and I won't cry or whine at all for a week."
Rin not crying for a week could be beneficial Sesshomaru thought to himself. Maybe he would let her go to this party.
"Fine Rin, you may go."
"Really? Oh thank you!" Rin jumped up to give him a hug.
"Jaken will take you so you better mind him."
"But won't you be going?"
"I have better things to do."
"What if I go two weeks without crying?" Rin said giving him a mischievous grin.
Sesshomaru smiled inwardly, but kept an unreadable look on his face. Maybe he would be going after all.
"Whatever you say," he sighed.
"You're the best!" Rin bounded out of the room in happiness and excitement. I'm going to a party!
I'm done with chapter two! It's harder to make things humorous with Sesshomaru…he needs to laugh more often. Like me! I laugh all time ahahaha but maybe that's not a good thing. Don't worry, I'll make Sesshomaru laugh or at least smile by the end of my story or else!
